Yeah I had this tablet as my first tablet and it was honestly so good (I drag). I must've had the first version or something because I didn't really notice any hardware smoothing but maybe it just wasn't very strong but there was no input delay for me which was nice.
The XP-PEN G640 has always been a good tablet - it's arguably one of the best tablets, pros like ThePooN and badeu use it (Rev A) and mrekk uses Rev B but he's complained about the smoothing before. If you want to get it then make sure you receive Rev A (the older version) which has less hardware smoothing and greater specs in general
Adding the song name for the beat maps is a Chad move. Thank you so much. Just made me love ur channel a little more :). Uve been pumpin out great content recently! Keep up the good work!
whenever I play a longer song with no breaks on this tablet, the pen slips forward so much overtime that at the end, the tip of the pen is literally a couple millimetres from my palm and I'm basically rubbing my hand against the tablet to play.
Why tf would you not just use hawku or devocub and the hover distance was also kinda annoying at first for me but I just changed my grip slightly and it's good.
I knew it XD Im using this tablet every day and i dont regret, it is comact and accurate ALSO if youre drawing on this you should turn off the windows ink feature built in the driver, cause for some reason sometimes the cursor may freeze for a milisecond and jump for about 2 pixels far from the start point when you press on it with the stylus But im super ok, would recommend, and using it almost 1 year ofc i didnt try other tablets (LOL) but i got used to it so thats gud:D also that outro music again, I love it LETSGOOO
Dude, Hakwu's drivers and out of the box Linux support is its selling point! If you haven't tested Hawku's drivers - try it! On this tablet it's another level!
TD bad, OTD good also still work after windows 2004 compared to TD, also, OTD work OOB with most XP-Pen tablet also, no need for vmulti there, so less latency
same bro, i also have the tablet but i guess i have the good version and with the hakwu's drivers it is just amazing and i dont want any other tablet :)
Hey there, I have been using this tablet for over a year but it'd be hard for me to recommend it. For the same money, or maybe less you can buy better options which may end up being more comfortable. My only issue would be the pen, its super slippery and it tends to shift my grip midmap causing me to loose combo. For the people that haven't bought it yet, make sure to check out the whole rev scandal this tablet generated a few months ago (which was important imo becuase they changed some specs for worse, without letting anyone know). For the people that already do own this tablet, and have the same grip issues as me, some people recommended putting tennis overgrip on the pen. I will be trying it next week, so if you remind me I can give my feedback. Leaving all those things aside, this isn't a bad tablet. So if you manage to overcome those common problems you should be completely fine with it.
yeah the lack of grip is the biggest deal-breaker for me. My hands get very sweaty so i need to have a rubber grip on the pen, something which the Gaomon S620 has and it's performance and price is on par with the G640
I always had a problem with the grip, but I eventually got over it, and it's fine for me now. I also used to have a problem where if I accidentally pressed one of the two buttons on the stylus, it would pretty much have a 50/50 shot of freezing the cursor in place, which would make me lose combo and fail maps when I shouldn't have. I eventually just took the buttons off, and now I don't have that problem anymore. I havem't had any other tablets to compare it to, but it's treated me well for as long as I've had it. (December 2017)
@@intrntboi Worked fine for me. I'm sure they have different drivers for different products, so maybe you got the wrong software. If you use Mac or Linux, their software might not be compatable with your OS. I dunno.
I've been using this pen for 6 months, everything is good for me just there is literally no grip so if you hold the pen non stop for an hour and a half it will start to slip. The hover is dog shit
I dragged on mine until my area pretty much became not useable anymore then got a tablet cover for it and so far that's been letting me drag although recently it's developed some scratches but not enough to mess with anything
I have the G640 tablet & G640s pen, very good combo I highly recommend ordering a separate G640s pen for the rubber grip & better shape Or get a CTL4100
I have a CTL4100 and thinking about getting a ctl472n or g640. What do you think? My ctl 4100 is split into two pieces and grip wouldn't be that big of a problem, because id buy tennis grip
Does anyone have a gaomon s620 here? If so, how long have you had it for and does it malfunction in any way? Because I bought mine and the tablet doesn't work unless the cable is plugged in at a certain angle and the pen isn't registering, I used the tablet normally for 2 days and and some art and it malfunctions, I'm going to return it so did I just get unlucky with a malfunctioning tablet or is it just bad.
I've been using mine for like a year now, and outside of the grip in long play sessions it's basically perfect, especially when I got it new for only 30 bucks
I bought this tablet two days ago on amazon and i got a version where there is hardware smoothing, moreover a low polling rate. Don't recommend buying this until they fix these issues.
Don’t buy on amazon buy straight from their website and leave a note that u want a old version which is good one for osu cuz I just got mine with good version since I told them I don’t want new ver
Kubini interesting. I use the same tablet with Hawku drivers. Don’t notice any smoothing compared to my old CTL 480. And the polling rate was higher then my ctl 480 too. I think it’s 250 for the XP pen.
Gaomon s620 or xp pen g640? both same price but does the s620 touch or hover the tablet, because I think I won’t like the hovering distance of the g640 (gonna be my first tablet btw)
oh, hey... i've had this tablet for about 1 year now, and I do like it quite a bit. The tablet I had before this one was the xp 430s and the only thing I did not like about the last sone is that it was small ( obviously ), and even though i use a rather small play area, it still felt small for me. one caveat is that I use a mousepad over the table to prevent it from scratching as I am a dragger, but in theory, it makes me feel like I am " hovering " so... yeah...

My friend used this tablet then he broke the pen, fixed the pen (somewhat), then gave that to me. I play with it now. Yes the hovering is really low (more with the broken pen) About the driver I play with hawku driver. Better than xp pen drivers IMO. Edit: the pen is really fragile. *DO NOT DROP IT!*
i had the same problem with my tablet. i had the wrong drivers for my h640p so it did nothing to change my tablet. a few weeks ago though, i used the drivers meant for it and it turned out my tablet was actually pretty good
To this day I still wonder why everyone uses the stock drivers as a reference point even though it's basically never advised to use them if the tablet works with literally any of the custom drivers that are currently available (or you could also easily add it on your own if it's not supported).
I'll buy that wallet... time to upgrade from my knockoff ridge wallet ;)

You might've gotten Rev B because Rev A has higher polling rate and less smoothing. Rev B has tons of hardware smoothing.
And lower rps
And how i know what tablet i have? Xd
how can i tell which one i have
if hawku drivers doesn't pick it up, its rev b. the tablet.cfg needs to be replaced for the rev b to work.
Your hand gets used to the lack of a grip after a few months and its unnoticeable even for a person with sweaty hands

nah it's good
default drivers work best
"its pretty cool"

the fact that the pen doesn't have a rubber grip is why my pen grip looks frickin weird

You know Squashy Boi doesn’t care when he leaves the included paid promotion watermark in 😭
So the standard driver is best for playing? The hawku driver seem to my PC stuck on loading when booted up
best driver for xp pen tablets is the "Tablet driverGUI"
Crazy i litteraly just started playing osu on this exact tablet
My friend used this tablet then he broke the pen, fixed the pen (somewhat), then gave that to me. I play with it now. Yes the hovering is really low (more with the broken pen)
About the driver I play with hawku driver. Better than xp pen drivers IMO.
Edit: the pen is really fragile. *DO NOT DROP IT!*
lol, im early
the problem is the standered osu drivers dont have the left click tip if u drag with the tablet.
the XP pen Star 640 worked before and now it doesn’t work after updating MacBook Pro. Cud you pls tell me what driver to download? Thank you
can u send your driver config as I got this exact same tablet 4 hours ago and I’m completely new to tablet
I use the G640 but with the TabletGUI Drivers, It feels really good and clean with no smoothing
Wich drivers do i have to download? The sep 18th ones or the aug 11th ones?
how do u aline the tablet to be the same with the mouse? its always like on top of the cursor on my screen
can i know ur sensitivity? cause i just got this tablet ytd i wanna try ur sens
yoo squashy how is the normal drivers any better than osu drivers?
G640 is good. Only problem I’ve had with it is the port broke on mine. I actually like the feel of my g640 more than my CTL-480

i had the same problem with my tablet. i had the wrong drivers for my h640p so it did nothing to change my tablet. a few weeks ago though, i used the drivers meant for it and it turned out my tablet was actually pretty good
